Hi ;
qmail can do a basic setup using a script (
http://www.syslogs.org/qmail/scripts/qinstaller.cnt6x.tar.gz for centos
6). In this way you can your mail server open to relay.In this way you can
send notification emails. ( example for nagios etc.. )

I don't think you need qmail for that. If it's a simple relay that you want to
run Id probably go for Exim4 or Postfix. They can do this simple work easily
and there is probably a lot of documentation available how to set it up.
For added security you should consider using firewall rules to
It is EXCEPTIONALLY easy to setup QMail as a relay:
_*For inbound traffic relay:*_
- First, setup a route (in */var/qmail/control/smtproutes*) that
points your domain(s) to your hidden mail server
Read more about smtproutes on our website (yes, its still there)
If I understand correctly, you'd like to be able to send emails from a
cloud web app to intranet (local) users.
As long as the intranet users are in domains for which your mail server
receives emails (the domain is in your rcpthosts), you shouldn't need to
do anything special. Just set up
I think the mail server is not connected to the internet and does not handle
public domain emails. It only handled email tragic internally. So the cloud
app needs a way in and the idea is to use a simple public mta that accepts
the mail as-is and passes it on to the internal server which

I think they don't wanna take any risk and loop it through an internal
connection. No outside one at all.
Under that aspect I see a relay being useful. It can deal with nasty stuff
instead of the important machine on the LAN.
Could be a security requirement in the company, maybe PCI compliance
So I guess the answer to his original question is yes. :)
It depends on the circumstances (requirements and constraints) as to how
best to achieve the result.
Thanks Sebastian. I presume Aneesh will reply with any further questions
he might have.

Hi,
Is there any way to put a SMTP forwarder kind of application on DMZ to
allow a webserver on the WAN to allow email notifications to an internal

hi eric,

software running on the cloud, from which i need to send email
notifications to my intranet users. My qmail server is in my LAN not public
